Hello! I'm Audra, owner of Simple Soul Photography.  Thanks for taking the time to learn a bit about me.  A little background: I've been an elementary school counselor, pastry chef and professional nose-wiper/dog walker (in other words, a mother to both furry and non-furry children). As you may guess, I adore kids and animals, perhaps to the point of obsession in the case of certain types of animals (pugs and llamas, I'm looking at you).  Also not surprising; my love of photography.  I began learning photography in a high school film photography class (and yes, it's true I was alive during the time of dinosaurs when film cameras also roamed the earth).  Ever since then, I've loved creating portraits that evoke real relationships and emotions. 

So... back to kids and pets:  I firmly believe that our pets and children bring most of us the greatest joy we experience in our daily lives, and because both are ephemeral in their own way (children grow and change in the blink of an eye, and sadly, pets often pass long before their owners do), I feel that there is no time better than the current moment to capture the love we share with them. Beautiful portraits offer us a way to preserve and cherish the present moment and I love helping the families I work create these masterpieces of memory.

Think we might be a good fit for each other and want to get more information?

Let's take the next step together.
